    Thinking of moving on from LR4...

    I purchased my 2011 LR4 Black Metropolis Edition on Memorial Day Weekend in 2011. This week, it hit 233,000 miles on the odometer. It has been as far west as California, as far south as Mexico, as far east as Boston and as far north as British Columbia. Quite the workhorse, and I still love...

    DIY Oil Change for LR4

    I know there has been some debate on the "DIY" Oil change for the LR4, so I wanted to pass along a "how to" with pictures. Honestly, this is the EASIEST oil change that I have ever done on a car. It took all of 20 minutes, and that could be cut down to 10-15 the second time... I like to...
